Essentials of Compilation

This is the LaTeX sources for two books, one about compiling a subset of Racket to x86-64 assembly code and the other about compiling a subset of Python, also to x86-64.

Generating the book

To generate the book (build/book.pdf), run the make command (assuming you have a full install of TeX Live).
